Anybody have a school that they liked working at? I'm hoping to teach in Daejeon or Bundang and I'm just looking for suggestions. (Am I just going to get a lot of school directors advertising their schools?)

In my experience - 3 years + in Korea, there are no "good hagwans".
There are only some that are some that are sort of acceptable and others that are f**((ng awful and a whole lot in between.
I don't know of anyone who is "happy" at their haggie, but then again if they get paid regularly and are at least 50% satisfied with the way the job is going, they are ahead of the game.
I'm sure some will disagree, but this has been my experience here.
Good Luck |

I'm in my second year and I basically agree. If you can find a Hagwon with a foreigner looking after the foreign teachers, that helps (I'm thinkinf of some large branch hagwons I know). Basically, there are so many things standing between a foreigner and a good experience teaching at a Korean hagwon. |
